Playable antique harps
(darn, tumblr only allows such tiny gif sizes, these are better on Patreon 😂)
I know you've been waiting on this one!!!
I have made three previously non-playable harps, playable - using @janesimsten's Playable Harp mod.
Two of these are by AnniQ: she had these set as radios; and I have added a stool, and converted them to be able to be played:
The third is by TV-Sims, and this was simply a decoration. This one had a stool attached, which I really liked, so I've used this for the other two harps as well:
JaneSimsten posted a little tutorial on how to make pianos into harpsichords, using her Playable Harpsichord mod; so, I followed the same principle to make these playable, with a little catch: the fingers go in a specific place in order to look like the sim is plucking the strings. SO, I worked real hard to align everything properly, and giving things the right proportions, so it looks as realistic as possible.
There is a tiny bit of body/clothes clipping throughout the playing, due to the size of the harps, but it is barely noticeable, and I don't think it takes away the beauty of the playing. A voluminous dress is a whole different kettle of fish, since they clip through pretty much everything anyway 😂
To make it work: you need to download JaneSimsten's Playable Harp mod here!
Build your harp playing skill, and at level 8 you can write songs! at level 9 you can licence songs! then you can become the most celebrated harpist in all the land!!
If you like, you can download the original harps here: Harpa by AnniQ, The Harp by AnniQ, Victorian Harp by TV-Sims; however, downloading these is NOT REQUIRED for these to work.
Go to my Patreon to download my harps!!
Happy Simming! 🤲🏻
